Katsushika Hokusai

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image depicts a Japanese woodblock print showing a snowy scene. A large building with a snow-covered roof and a covered porch is on the left. Three people are standing on the porch. A tree with snow-covered branches is to the right of the building. In the background, a mountain, possibly Mount Fuji, is visible on the right. The sky is blue and darkens towards the top. Snow-covered ground and several small buildings are in the foreground. There are two red seals in the bottom-right corner and Japanese writing on the top-left side.
